The Intermountain Health St. George Regional Hospital is proud to announce the opening of its new Day Treatment Center, designed to provide essential behavioral health services for children and teenagers. This initiative comes as a direct response to the growing need for pediatric mental health care in the community, made possible through the generous contributions received during the annual Jubilee of Trees fundraiser.

Community leaders, healthcare professionals, and families affected by mental health challenges gathered to celebrate this significant milestone. Among them was a family who tragically lost a child to suicide, who spoke passionately about the importance of accessible mental health resources for youth. The Day Treatment Center aims to offer a safe and supportive environment where young individuals can receive the care they need to navigate their mental health struggles.

This program is a vital step towards improving the overall well-being of children and teens in the St. George area, emphasizing the community's commitment to fostering healthier futures for its youth.
